Also…I HATE the calls where you call one guy for something and then the other guy for embellishment but honestly I couldn’t think of a better time to call that than on Subban on the high stick. It was hysterical but also ridiculous that he didn’t get called. He gest hit in the visor, not that hard, and violently whips his head and leaves his feet like he’s just been shot and then cowards on the ice. I mean great sell job I guess but the dramatics….you gotta call him. This isn’t soccer.

Mon, 26 May 2014 19:27:31 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2331158#comment-333889Oh stop. Last night’s game specifically, the Rangers were begging to be called for the majority of those penalties. The five or six of those penalties they committed in their offensive zone were so blatantly comical, and ridiculous that they would have been called by any referee. The Rangers were completely undisciplined last night and it’s good for them that they had a solid penalty kill.

I was streaming the radio broadcast of ESPN NY, along with watching the game, and even the Rangers color commentary homer on there couldn’t defend those penalties. That’s how blatantly terrible they were.

The Rangers penalty killing saved their bums last night.

The reason is pretty simple. Championship teams kill the penalties against them and then focus on what’s in front of them. Teams that want to be champions so bad but don’t have the mental makeup to accomplish it will complain during the penalty, after the penalty, and after the game. Deep down they know they need all the help they can get.

The game last night(actually every game) was ridiculous with the absurd amount of overlooked embellishment calls, and even the mugging of the Rangers in front of the Montreal net. That referee needs to be excused from any further action that includes the Habs.

Mon, 26 May 2014 15:42:25 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2331158#comment-333827Depends on what referees show up. Not one to complain about officiating but this site was brough to my attention and it’s really interesting, it’s called, scoutingtherefs.com, I left the link below and you won’t believe what you’ll read, here’s a a little insight. Rangers have not scored a goal against Montreal in a Jackson officiated game since before the lockout (January 17, 2004 – a 2-2 tie… when you could still have a tie. Rangers goals came from Holik and Kovalev.
Rangers have not won a game against Montreal with Jackson refereeing dating back to 1999. (Possibly longer — our stats don’t go back any further) and he’s from Montreal, Quebec.
Some more insight.. Dave Jackson is a Montreal native and was a huge fan of the Habs growing up. These playoffs he officiated 3 games involving Montreal this lost season:
Game 2 vs Bos : Montreal got 6 PPs but the Bruins managed a stunning 4-goal 3rd period to steal the game
Game 7 vs Bos : Mtl got 5 PPs, including one late in the game when Boston was pushing hard and where Mtl scored to ice it
Game 4 vs NYR : 8 PPs for Mtl but the Rangers managed to win in OT
Now that’s more than 6 PPs a game on average when Jackson is the referee in a Montreal game. Seems fishy huh.
